An opinion that bombed

You lambaste Boston for its "security freakout" over small electronic devices placed in public areas. These devices were replete with colored lights and exposed circuitry, and were powered by a row of batteries wrapped in black tape. You chastise that community with reminders of its problems with the Big Dig and a single athletic miscue. You pointedly criticize Boston's bomb squad for not watching the Cartoon Network and recognizing the difference between an incident of guerrilla warfare and guerrilla marketing.
